How to
Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Add the rice and boil gently for 15 minutes. Once cooked, drain and keep warm in a colander over a sauce-pan of hot water.

Add a few glugs of olive oil to a pan over medium to low heat. Add mustard seeds and cook for 30 seconds or until they start to pop. Turn up the heat to medium high and add onion and sauté for 3-5 minutes until translucent. Add ginger, garlic, curry powder, turmeric, chilli powder and cardamom pods and stir for a minute.

Add coconut milk and water and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened. Add beans, tomatoes, sugar and lime juice and simmer for a further 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes have softened slightly. Finally stir through chopped coriander (reserving a little for the garnish).

Serve coconut beans on top of a bed of rice and scatter with coriander.
